Writer/Editor Russ Tarby (left) and Music Executive/Drummer Larry Luttinger have made some great contributions to Central New York arts scene. We first met Russ when he was the go-to-guy for music at the New Times about two decades ago; we met Larry when he was first putting together the Jazz Arts Foundation. They are pictured here at Tuesday’s Jazz Central Holiday Reception.

Saturday, January 25th, 2014Thanks to The Paul Robeson Performing Arts Company (PRPAC) for choosing one of our photos for their most recent production. The PRPAC is producing “Mama Said There Would Be Days Like This” with Omanii Abdullah at Jazz Central. We saw a similar production when it was staged at CFAC. The shows were directed by Ryan Johnson-Travis.

Jazz Central Holiday Reception
The annual holiday party at Jazz Central continues to be a great after work mixer (and not just to get a taste of Judy Murphy’s meatballs).
The intimate theater provides a great opportunity to catch up with all those folks you’ve seen through the year at jazz shows sponsored by the CNYJAF (from Sitrus, Jazz in the City and the Cabaret series as well as the Northeast Jazz & Wine Festival).
A few years ago, despite a snow storm, we caught an impromptu piano performance by Cookie Coogan, Chris Jones and Jeff Stockham. Last night the mood was just as festive with Dave Solazzo providing the musical ambiance.
Jazz Patrons: Assemblyman Sam Roberts, Lanessa Owens and Mike Atkins attended the party.
